Byron Bay and the Rainbow Region
Byron Bay became a popular holiday destination in the 70's focusing on a laid back beachside surf scene and alternative culture. The last 40 years has seen Byron itself grow into a dynamic family holiday destination with some of Australia’s most pristine beaches, cafes, restaurants and water based activities, and easy access to the stunning hinterland Rainbow region. The region buzzes with creativity, and, with the spirit of Australia at its core, attracts visitors from all over the world. If you are looking for some serious R&R, with access to stunning beaches, countryside, village crafts and markets, and tasty local organic produce then this is the place for you.
